East of the United States is wrapped in smoke from Canadian forest fires and Saharan dust

Canada Forest Fires and Sahara desert dust plugs are suffocating large parts of the United States, creating a misty sky and a dangerous air quality from northeast to southeast.

The National Weather Service published Air quality alerts Wednesday for New York and many surrounding regions, including New Jersey and most Connecticut. Officials have said that people more sensitive to air pollution should limit outdoor outputs and monitor respiratory symptoms from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Air quality in the New York metropolitan region and in the Lower Hudson valley was to be “unhealthy for sensitive groups”, according to the Department of Environment Conservation of New York State. The department had Air quality health notice In fact for these areas, especially for individuals at risk. The general public, he said, was less likely to be affected.

Elsewhere in New York, including on Long Island, air quality levels should be “moderate”.

The American environmental protection agency warnings This forest smoke contains dangerous pollutants in the form of fine particles called PM 2.5 which can penetrate deep into the lungs and enter the blood circulation. Short -term exposure can cause bronchitis, worsen asthma and create other health problems.

Several air quality warnings were also in effect in western western Canada for the areas around the fires of this part of the country, with smoke from northwest Ontario.
